After Hurricane Katrina, George Bandy saw extensive rebuilding efforts, especially on low-income homes. He and his colleagues witnessed a poignant moment when a grandmother couldn't afford energy-saving light bulbs due to financial constraints. This encounter made them realize how pushing sustainability ideals on people facing immediate struggles lacked empathy. It led to reflections on society's narrowed focus, sometimes prioritizing environmental causes over essential human needs and the challenges of engaging with humility in aiding others.
